Cemetery Pouncer Hunted After Teen Attacked


Police are hunting a cemetery predator who dragged a teenage girl into a wooded area and ordered her to strip – fleeing when she screamed in a bid to alert passers-by.

On September 4 the 16 year-old girl took a short cut through Abney Park, Cemetery, Stoke Newington, North London (pictured) at 2:00pm when the assailant began following her.

The suspect grabbed her from behind and tried to drag her towards a secluded area.

He told her to remove some items of her clothing but when the victim heard voices nearby she screamed, causing the suspect to run off.

He is described as a “chubby” black man, approximately 30 years old and between 5ft 9” and 5ft10” tall.

He had black stubble on his face and spoke with a deep voice in a local accent.

He was wearing black gloves with a Nike tick and a navy hooded top, which he wore up.



Witnesses or anyone who may have information are asked to call Hackney CID on 020 7275 3640 or to remain anonymous call Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
